Home of the Celery Vase

I read with great interest your July 10 article about celery glasses (Consumer's World: ''Celery Vase: An Antique Cooler Revived'').

When the English designer William Yeoward introduced his line of reproduction celery glasses at Bergdorf Goodman, no one recognized them for what they were -- no one except for each and every magazine editor who was brought up in the Southern United States. Obviously, the refinements of gracious dining are alive and well below the Mason-Dixon line.
